Dear Santa,

It’s that time of year again! Cold weather, warm rooms,
lots of people eating dinner with their family and when I
think of you I just finish my dinner!
I should remind you of what a good father I have been this year! I have
been trying to get off the naughty list since the last time I got terribly sick. Some of the
fabulous, amazing, and useful things I have done are
1.I signed my daughter up for dance classes.
2.I tried to spend more time with my daughter on the weekend.
3.I signed my daughter up for English classes.
Here are my new wishes for Christmas this year.
1. I’d love to practice English.
2. Gimme more opportunities to win contracts or else I
just might lose my job! I am looking
forward to a special Christmas Eve with you! I will be sure to have yummy
steak for your tummy, a glass of wine and an extra special
surprise that I’m sure you will love!

Thank you, Santa! Mark
